True straight talk

You don’t hear enough of this.  Governor Christie isn’t pulling any punches.  He’s putting it out there like every politician should.  Most politicians try to pacify everyone into voting for them again.  Apparently Governor Christie doesn’t play by those rules.  He’s playing the straight talk and honesty game that usually gets politicians attacked like he [...]

Another threat to freedom. Hidden in another “treaty”

Graduation

OK so I know that I’m not the most personable person  in the world.  My wife says that I just don’t like very many people and that may be true but…  Why would I send a graduation gift to a kid that I haven’t seen since she was 5?  I’m not friends with her parents [...]
